On Friday, President Barack Obama is expected to sign into law a federal highway bill with a section that redefines tobacco manufacturers to include any business with a roll-your-own cigarette machine and taxes those products at the same rate as packaged smokes.
A FEDERAL HIGHWAY BILL. That REDEFINES PRIVATE BUSINESS. So that the government can get MORE TAXES.
Fuck them all. We need more tar and feathers. And I don't even smoke cigarettes, but this is just another example of why the government needs to be pruned back to the bare roots.
!!!
This government doesn't need to be pruned back to the roots; it needs to be uprooted and destroyed.
ReplyDeleteI think that we ought to use the Professor de la Paz method of financing federal spending - "pay for it out of your own pouches."

I'd say that if more people even knew who the hell Bernardo de la Paz was, our society would be better off. Introduce folks to the hard reality of TANSTAAFL.
